RSPB Conwy sightings board

This was our first week of 'proper' Spring migration, with small groups of sand martins passing through since the first on Sunday evening (20th), swallow on Wednesday (23rd), wheatear on Saturday and Sunday (26th/27th), and a willow warbler reported yesterday (the latter does seem early but Bardsey has already recorded a couple). Several chiffchaffs are now singing around the reserve, and house martin seen on Friday and over the weekend is our earliest ever sighting. (Wheatear pic by Rob Sandham from last year).

More recent sightings are on the nature reserve blog, and details of forthcoming events are on the website.
